Race 1

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: TIPPERARY HILL
Odds: 7-2

Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: ARTFULLY DEALT
Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: IAQUINTA
Odds: 5-2

Race 1 Comments: TIPPERARY HILL was victimized by slow early fractions and couldn’t rally through :58.2 final half. 4-year-old remains sharp at this level and finds a good spot to brush by small field.

Race 2

Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: HUNTERS GAL
Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: MR RIDGETAKER
Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: MIRACLE MUSIC
Odds: 5-1

Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: FERRISWHEEL JUNKIE
Odds: 7-2

Race 2 Comments: HUNTERS GAL has been ultra consistent without winning on The Maine Bred stakes circuit finishing second or third in 12 of 14 starts with earnings better than $30,000. Filly finds good spot and may prove better than the locals.

Race 3

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: DREAMING SILLY
Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: RELLA TIVITY
Odds: 9-2

Horse Number: 2

Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: TYRONBETTORSELLA N
Odds: 5-2

Race 4 Comments: FOLLOWTHEWIND N steps up off a strong two-move score against lesser. Looks sharp enough to handle the upgrade and is “hot” pilot’s choice over three others in here.
